«I spent some time getting to know Karen Friesen, the CFO of Free Alberta From Overreach (FAFO) — one of the most grassroots third‑party advertisers involved in the referendum. Their acronym might be fun, but their commitment is serious. FAFO is built from everyday Albertans who want to share information about the independence movement in their own authentic way.
They’re not one of the larger TPAs, but they punch above their weight. Through bumper stickers, signs, handouts, and steady community outreach, FAFO is spreading the message one conversation at a time.
Like every TPA, they rely on supporters who believe in the cause and want to help amplify it. If you’re looking for a group that’s driven by genuine grassroots energy, FAFO is worth paying attention to.»
